of the department, 80 years since the founding of the economic service of the ministry of foreign affairs of russia, on september 7, then, as now, the world was on the threshold of serious such cardinal changes, then the second world war was coming to an end. already the talk was about what the new post-war world would be like, and not only from the point of view of politics and security, but from the point of view of the economic world order, that's when there was a need to create a division in the ministry of foreign affairs that would provide diplomatic support, but above all, participate in negotiations to determine the parameters of new global institutions, how the united nations will work in...

countries, here, of course, a new multipolar world is also being formed, where russia occupies a leading place, is the founder, in essence, of the new meanings of the formation of such a world, in terms of the economy, of course, we rely on the opinion relevant ministries, the economic block, first of all, we actively participate in the work of the government on all emerging issues,

transport, now they are also, by the way, very difficult, our companies and insurance corporations are under sanctions, yes, that is, it is necessary to create a lot anew, yes, both the fleet, and insurance companies and so on, that is , with all the departments of the economic block we are in a very close, close connection, and first of all, in terms of content, we listen to their opinion, but we also give some hints about how to work. with partners friendly and unfriendly in various

international organizations, because the department of economic cooperation primarily supervises international structures, these are the uon and the twenty, so recently the department's report has expanded, returned to the bosom of the department in the forum of the asian-pacific economic cooperation, such a topic as a big one appeared:

in general for the work of the department of economic cooperation, here in russia, this is primarily the st. petersburg international economic forum, there is such a very significant industry platform, this is the russian... energy week, which this year will be held in moscow from september 26 to 28, and there will also be very significant discussions that shape what is called world public opinion in the field, in the field of energy, in the field of fossil energy sources and new renewable sources, yes, at the international level - these are

the oldest structures of the united nations, such as an international organization.

moreover, such a good half are countries the global south and russia, and we are forming consensus decisions there that have a direct projection on how the global economy, finance, trade will function, that is , this is such a signal to the world about where we are moving and what challenges, risks, opportunities we see, a signal just about the multipolarity that is simply necessary. of course, because in the conditions of that geopolitical confrontation, which is now a reality, yes, it is very difficult to defend russia's interests on international platforms, where the west, they are like, you know, as per instructions, they are working to

isolate us, to not give us a voice, sometimes there were cases of exits from... halls, obstruction, yes, it is very important for us that economic platforms are maximally depoliticized, we should not allow them, as if to give them the opportunity to realize their goals, yes, we are not closing ourselves off from anyone, as the president said, we are part of the international community, our doors are open to investors and entrepreneurs, and we ourselves are developing international markets, therefore, of course , we will not tolerate any... any discrimination against ourselves and we work with friendly partners in order to provide an adequate specialized format for each of these structures. moving more deeply to economic issues: the ruble, the rupee, the yuan , the interaction between china and russia is already 90%, 95%, 95%, transferred to rubles and

yuan, the interaction between and...

less than half, and with china we have 95%, with the countries of the eurasian economic union over 90%, and life has shown that already there are practically no opportunities to pay in dollars and euros, so companies find ways to make payments in the currencies that are available, which are rupees, yuan, the united arab emirates dirham, and turkish lira, often, yes, that is, there are many options for converting, let's say, some currencies into such neutral currencies. then there are opportunities for purchasing - in third-country markets , the products that we need, and for them

to convert into the currencies that are used by these countries, that is, the process is ongoing, it is very difficult, indeed many entrepreneurs, many companies, well, are still in the paradigm of the old thinking: give us the dollar, give us - with those forms of transfer of financial messages that exist, which are absolutely independent from the collective west, from swift, from something else, yes, there is a system for transferring interbank messages of our central bank, yes, china has such a system, iran has such a system, other countries have too, but to combine these systems or agree on what we will work on, these are the most such a sensitive, most painful

question, because, well, essentially, this is part of the country's financial sovereignty, so negotiations are underway here, naturally they are quite discrete, closed, but our colleagues are finding ways to move forward, there are, let's say, such temporary palliative forms on how to twist. i cannot help but ask a question about a possible single financial unit within the framework of brics, to what extent is this possible, what work is being done in this direction, what kind of unit could this be? the need arises, because countries like brics, yes, they are irritated by the sanctions pressure that is being put on them, i mean secondary sanctions, i mean simply political pressure.

in finance, in energy, in the subject of the same green economy, yes, we are making , we are making our contribution, we are aware that such work has already begun on the creation, as if on the formation of a discussion outline, i will say so vaguely for now, on the creation of a single unit of account, it is clear that each country will promote its own here interests, this is normal, this is exactly what we... as if we are calling for when forming a multipolar world, so that they rely not on promptings, as we say, from the washington regional committee, yes, on their own national

interests, and the overwhelming majority of countries are set on this, therefore these secondary sanctions cause irritation and move our colleagues from friendly countries to become more actively involved in this discussion about a new unit of account. this is of course a question of the future, i am saying this for now, the dialogue has only just begun. and in conclusion i cannot not to ask this question about our assets, financial assets that have been confiscated by western countries, frozen at the moment, what could be our answer here, maybe some deadlines are already known and the most important thing is in what form we will answer, well, as you know, the answer to what exposes us.

one way or another connected with the west, we are creating with friendly partners such a system, which again will be visible only to those who participate in it, this is also an answer, yes, because overnight there is neither a dollar nor a euro they will not collapse, but they will gradually be replaced by the currencies that we use in foreign trade with third countries, yes, with ours, with our partners, as for assets, you probably noticed that in the west. very carefully, very carefully comment on this topic, they have been saying for a long time: we will take it away, we will create a fund, 50 billion,

we will transfer everything to ukraine. statements are being made, but the steps so far are very, very minimal, that is , the assets themselves, they have been frozen since 22, but no one disputes that they belong to the russian federation, they understand that if they commit such an act of theft, then this will undermine trust in them, because if they can do this to russia, then they can do this to any other country that brussels or washington does not like, yes, that is why they themselves are extremely, extremely cautious, they are afraid of all this, they are afraid of course of the fact that we have levers, after all, it was not for nothing that decisions were made at the presidential level, at the government level, to create special accounts for foreign companies, to prevent the withdrawal

of funds. with the countries of the global south, with our friendly partners, so that they also keep this in mind remind the west that guys, do not touch what can cause such a fire that no one will be able to stop later. thank you very much for the detailed interview. thank you for your attention, for inviting me, all the best.
